Read a rave
review:
"Afraid to grow orchids? Fear no more, because this book
explains everything we need to know, from how orchids grow
in nature (mostly on sides of trees!) and what we have to do
to make them happy on the windowsill.
judywhite is well-known in
the orchid world for her wonderful way of explaining
themysteries behind how to grow them, and this book, which
she also photographed (there are 300 gorgeous color photos
depicting every genus in the encyclopediasection) is not
only well-written, it is well-organized and covers
everything from pestcontrol to potting materials (the best
resource on this subject in particular that I'veever come
across) to light to getting the darned things to bloom
again. The secondhalf of the book is the encyclopedia
section, describing not only species, but alsoman-made
intergeneric hybrids, with a lot of information you can't
find anywhereelse in one place.
I definitely agree with
others that if you only get one orchid book - whether you
are just a beginner or truly advanced - this is *the* orchid
book!" -- Amazon.com
